A1 Heritage Breed Farms is located in west central Ohio, close to Indiana, not far from I-75. Like us on Facebook (HeritageBreedFarms) and keep up with us via our website. We started our farm for several key reasons. First and foremost we wanted to be sustainable. We feel that God has entrusted us as stewards of his creation. Being sustainable keeps our land and animals in the best possible health and returns the land in better shape than when we received it. Secondly, we wanted to raise the best tasting food because food should never have additives if its authentically good! Third, we wanted our children to grow up on a farm—who wouldn’t? Lastly, and most importantly, we wanted food that was good for you. Raising a young and growing family, eating healthy food was a no brainer which is why we grow everything using organic practices. All of these decisions lead us to raising the heritage breeds of: Dexter cattle, Large Black and Red Wattle hogs, Buckeye chickens, Olberhasi goats, Katahdin sheep, Bronze breasted turkeys, and several other mixed breeds of animals, most of which follow the heritage breed lines. We currently have pastured freezer pork available. There is lots of bacon on our hogs—32 pounds on average! No wonder they call large blacks “bacon hogs.” These are our personal favorites, they taste EXCELLENT. In our opinion, there is no comparison in taste and flavor! Our Red Wattles are also featured pork on Slow Food USA's Ark of Taste. Grass Fed Dexter beef is the fastest selling item on our farm. Dexters have excellent marbling for grass fed animals and have about a 20% larger rib eye for its size (my favorite cut! ) They are extremely docile and small. If you are used to ordering a half, then you want a whole; if you are used to a quarter, you want half a Dexter. This allows you to get all the premium cuts of meat without breaking the bank! Pastured poultry. Please order ahead because we get our chicks in late winter/early spring. We can raise as many meat birds as our customers want, but we have to receive the orders early to get our preparations done ahead of summer. We also have pastured eggs layed by our favorite bird, the Buckeyes! What a great bird, raised in the same great state as its namesake! Delivery available Columbus, Cincinnati, Toledo, Indianapolis and closer. As always thank you for your business and remember to eat local and eat fresh! God Bless. A1 Heritage Breed Farms, Brent and Beth Schulze, Russia, OH 45363. (937) 418-3790. Auburn Meadow Farm. It's true! Slow growing, old fashioned British breeds make some of the juiciest, most flavorful grass fed beef around. Meat rich with beefy flavor and fine, juicy texture – all on a grass only diet – special enough to be included on the Slow Foods Ark of Taste! Our herd of rare American Milking Devons are about as close to their British roots as can be. We began our work raising cattle as a direct response to animal welfare, food quality and environmental issues. We follow non-certified organic methods and the cattle eat only grass and hay grown here at home. Our cows live a happy, natural life of grazing with their buddies, with plenty of spring water and free-choice shelter from cold, rain and blazing sun. In beef cattle, there is a documented relationship between high butterfat content in the milk and superior marbling in the beef. And, a scientific reason the flavor and texture of the meat from smaller breeds given longer to mature is so much finer. We have taken great pains to resist the temptation to breed for increased size and beef yield thereby preserving the rich milk that made these cows such a treasure in their native Devonshire, England. You’ve heard of Devonshire cream, haven’t you? Well these girls invented it… We are located just about an hour north of Pittsburgh, and 10 minutes from Boardman, Ohio. We have limited amount of beef available each summer and are excited to share it with you. Don't miss out; when it’s gone, it’s gone until next year! Auburn Meadow Farm, Jackie Cleary, 164 Bedford Road, West Middlesex PA 16159. (412) 600-5826. Autumn Harvest Farm, owned and operated by Marcus and Beth Ladrach and family, has grown as a family farm since 1946. We raise All Natural grass-fed beef, vegetables, and hay. All 230 acres of the farm have been certified organic by the Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association (OEFFA) since 1996. All crops and pastures are certified organic. Located in the rich agricultural landscape of Wayne County, Ohio, Autumn Harvest Farm is only 30 minutes from Medina, 45 minutes from Akron or Canton, less than an hour from Cleveland, and an hour and a half from Columbus. Autumn Harvest Farm specializes in raising All Natural Angus cross-bred beef cattle on certified organic pastures with no grain or hormones. A rotational grazing program regularly moves the cattle through paddocks containing grass mixed with clover and alfalfa so that the animals have a nutritionally rich blend of pasture crops to eat. We take pride in raising beef calves up to full market weight on a 100% grass-fed diet, an effort that is reflected in the excellent quality and taste of the beef. Grass-fed beef has rightfully gained a reputation for having higher nutritional value, less fat, and fewer calories that grain-fed beef, and we have found that their rotational grazing pattern contributes to the health of the cattle as well as to the health of the farm. Farmers Markets: We attend the Downtown Wooster Farmers Market, June through October, Saturdays 8am- 12:00pm. Grocery Stores: We sell our products at Local Roots Market, 140 S Walnut Street in downtown Wooster, OH. Autumn Harvest Farm, Marcus and Beth Ladrach, 5109 Rice Hill Road, Wooster OH 44691.

We are organically minded and we take pride in providing premium grass fed finished beef, silvopasture-raised pork, and pasture-raised poultry for meat. Our grass fed/finished herd is made of South Poll and Angus cattle. They are rotated daily to fresh diverse forage with access to clean water and 20 different types of minerals. This process produces a well-marbled meat that the whole family will enjoy. Our pork is fed a non-GMO, soy-free feed to supplement their daily salad bar while living their best lives under a beautifully developed combination of trees and forage. The taste and juiciness of forest-raised pork will make your taste buds thank you! Our poultry are moved daily to make sure they get their fill of fresh grass, bugs and plenty of sunshine. They are also fed a non-GMO, soy-free feed to supplement anything that mother nature cannot provide. This chicken will make you wonder why you've ever purchased it from the grocery in the past. Through the years, we have partnered with nature to practice regenerative agriculture. We strive to ensure that our farmland is continuously improving for our livestock to feed your family. We care about how our meat is raised, so we decided to raise it ourselves. We quickly discovered that there is a difference with farm fresh meat; we want you to experience it too! We take no shortcuts! We want to be your source for nutritious meat. We can ship our frozen meat directly to your door anywhere in the USA or you can pick up on the farm by appointment. We look forward to hearing from you. Ayers Valley Farm, Taylor and Joshua Ayers,

CCC doesn’t use extra hormones, or antibiotics. Texas Longhorn cattle multiplied in the Southwest without Man’s help or interference from the 1520s to the 1930s. They were the first bovines on the American Continent, brought by the Spanish for use as oxen (tractors to pull their carts). Their survivability in the wild was Nature-Bred into their DNA with 400 years of natural selection. Callan Cattle Co. Texas Longhorns eat grass, browse or locally baled hay from chemical-free fields. CCC Longhorns are efficient grass and browse-eating cattle. Texas Longhorns turn 6 pounds of grass into a pound of muscle gain without the excess back fat, common to other breeds of cattle, that needs to be trimmed off. Similar to Bison. Longhorn’s low trim/back fat on the carcass hook in the processor’s cooler means you get more of what you pay for when priced by the hanging weight. And yes, Longhorn beef is tender. We’ve had compliments on our beeves for 20 years. Give us a call. We’re five miles north of Newark, OH on State Route 657 (7688 Marion Road), between Johnstown, Granville and Utica, OH, and 35 to 45 minutes from Columbus, OH. Look for the big Callan Cattle Co. sign with the Texas Longhorn cow logo. Cattle of all colors, eating Ohio’s Natural Grass. Delivery to central Ohio areas upon request. 740-745-3348. Texas Longhorn Beef, America’s Original Beef. Callan Cattle Co., Ed Callan, 7688 Marion Road, Newark, OH 43055. (740) 745-3348 Canal Junction Natural Meats & Farmstead Cheese is a grass-based farming operation where we believe in raising our animals for food the way God intended them to be raised. We have a dairy herd along with beef, pork, lamb, broilers, turkeys and layers. We direct market all of the products that we produce on the farm. We recently started to make Raw Milk cheese from our own milk. The dairy, beef, and lambs are 100% grassfed. They do not receive any grain. The pork, broilers, turkeys and layers all are raised on pasture and are given supplemental feed. The broilers and turkeys are moved every 24 hours to another section of pasture. The layers are free ranged within the paddocks that we have the cattle in. We have very heavy clay soil that at one time was a swamp (The Great Black Swamp). It has been drained off since the second half of the 19th century. What was left behind was a soil that is extremely high in naturally occurring minerals. Through proper utilization of grass farming we capitalize on the available nutrients for grazing animals, which in return makes the final product more nutrient dense. It has been said that food grown on heavy clay soil is some of the best tasting in the world. Find out for yourself today. Order some cheese or stop by the farm and buy some meat to try for yourself. We sell the raw milk cheese and meat off the farm. The meat is in nice sized small packages and the cheese is in approximately 3/4 lb packages. Bigger blocks of cheese are available, just ask. The cheese we will ship, the meat must be bought through the farm store. We do have a wholesale price for the cheese for any retailers or restaurant owners. Cheeses available include Cheddar, Colby, Jack, Garlic & Herb, Jack & Dill, Pepper Jack, Italian Herb, Black Swamp Gouda, Miami Erie Canal Swiss and Wabash Erie Canal Gruyere. Meat is also offered in bulk. Beef is available by the whole, half, quarter, or half of a half. Pork and lamb are offered by the whole or half. Unless other arrangements are made, it is the customer's responsibility to pick up bulk orders from the butcher shop once the order is finished. Canal Junction Natural Meats & Farmstead Cheese,

Our plan and hope was to restore health to ourselves and others through growing our own food, and better nutrition and lifestyle. We have been certified organic by OCIA and OEFFA for three years. We raise grassfed, chemical-free Hereford cattle and try to have freezer beef in all cuts available year-round. The cows graze rotationally to maximize the pasture and their time on greens. We also raise organic food-grade corn, soybeans, and hard (make bread flour) and soft winter wheat. We raise hay for the cows, but feed them only what we need to get them through the winter. We also grow a large organic vegetable garden with help from interns and volunteers (always looking for more) and have a farm market as well as a CSA. Products from the garden are available during the growing season. We also make maple syrup and have it available year-round. We do four major events each year to encourage urban folks to visit the farm and see how food is raised. These include a Maple Sugar Festival in February, a Mushroom Hunt in April, a farm tour and taste of local food in July, and a Fall Harvest Festival in October.

My family raises Wagyu/Angus cows from baby calves to adult cows, from start to finish, here on our 70-acre certified (by ECO-CERT) organic rolling hills pasture farm. Our farm is located in Southeastern Indiana, about 60 miles south of Indianapolis, 50 miles west of Cincinnati, and 70 miles north of Louisville. We move our 40–50 cow/calf herd to new fresh pasture everyday through the spring, summer, and fall. During the winter months they are fed good quality hay or bailage, free choice. Redmond salt/mineral and kelp are always available free choice. Our cows are very healthy and fatten up nicely on pasture with no grain, no added hormones, and no antibiotics. This makes for delicious healthy steaks, roast, briskets, and hamburger with plenty of beta carotene, Vitamin A, Omega 3, and CLA. Our cows have plenty of fresh water always, with good shade in the summer and a barn or windbreaks in the winter. We are looking into grazing sheep, goats, or chickens, or maybe all three behind the cows, but only have cows for now. Our animals lead low-stress lives, and they are clean and happy! We currently have three different local locker plants processing the meat which we sell to our customers by the half or quarter for $3–$5.00 per pound hanging weight plus processing.

The animals in this program will be slaughtered under federal inspection and we will be processing the meat ourselves, in our facility on our farm. Additionally, the only meat we will be processing will be our grass fed beef. This year the grass finished cattle will have an average dressed weight of 600–700 pounds.

We offer organically grown (non-certified), soy-free, non-GMO, pastured broiler chickens, turkeys, and pastured eggs. These animals work in synergy with our 100% grassfed/grass-finished Black Angus beef cattle. Throughout the entire life of our grass-finished cattle, they thrive solely on high quality forage, hay, and free-choice minerals. We also offer Black Angus bulls, steers and heifers for sale that have been bred to produce cattle that thrive solely on grass and minerals. Our 100% grass-finished, completely natural beef is sold by the half, whole or as individual cuts. We welcome on-farm sales as well as offer our products for sale at Keller Market House in Lancaster, OH, along with other local farmers that produce amazing products. We'd love to share our farm experience with you and welcome visitors. Please call ahead and we'll be happy to arrange a tour.

Premium Quality Longhorn Beef is a partnership between Bonnie Glen Longhorns in Coshocton and Morris Land & Cattle Co. in Perrysville committed to bringing you the best locally raised, grass-fed Longhorn beef in central Ohio. Texas Longhorn beef is higher in protein while having less fat, calories, and cholesterol than typical ground beef, lean ground beef, pork, turkey, and white meat chicken. Texas Longhorns are the original breed of the cattle empires from the 1800s. Formed by 400–500 year of natural selection, they are disease and parasite resistant and calve easily. University studies consistently shows them to have longevity and productivity that exceeds nearly every other breed. It was these very characteristics that nearly bred them out of existence as the early ranchers crossed them with the less hardy European breeds, like Angus. We currently sell our meat at Forbes Farm Market, 5614 McCurdy Road, Perrysville, Ohio 44864; Black Fork Bistro, 153 W Main St, Loudonville, Ohio 44842; and Buehler’s, 1055 Sugarbush Dr, Ashland, Ohio 44805.

As Hartzlers, we take notes out of Grandpa Harold Hartzler's book to farm and live as nature intended, honoring the soil and the animal. The farm utilizes regenerative farming principles beyond organic to ensure the soil is continually enriched and fosters creation of humus, not to be confused with hummus—though that's pretty delicious! We believe life starts in the soil and that microorganism colonies are not to be disrupted by farmers but supported to flourish. It never ceases to astound us how dynamic agriculture is! To serve you well we offer pick up locations bi-monthly in Wayne, Summit, Medina, and Cuyahoga Counties on a rotating schedule and are establishing a shipping program to deliver our meats straight to your door.

We do not use any hormones or antibiotics and they never eat grain. Our chickens' diet consists of grass and lots of sunshine, which makes their eggs high in vitamin D.

State Route 540, Bellefontaine OH 43311. (937) 935-7505. Sweet Grass Dairy is located about 40 miles north of Columbus, Ohio. Our love for farming was God given from a young age. We started farming at this location the spring of 2013. Our desire is to teach our children to farm responsibly and provide you with nutritious fresh food. The center piece of our operation is our OEFFA organic-certified dairy herd. Herd shares are available after an interview and farm tour. We have other enterprises that revolve around the dairy such as grass-based broilers in the summer time and fresh eggs from laying hens that follow the cows. Grass-finished beef is also coming available here on the farm in the near future. Our dairy herd is a mix of breeds. We have been using A2A2 breeding, so the herd is producing a lot of A2A2 milk now, but not 100%. The dairy herd is grass based, with at least 97% of their ration coming from the pastures. At times we balance the cows’ energy needs with a small amount of grain (no soy products) and molasses (under five pounds). We do this to maintain the cows’ energy needs, so as not to sacrifice their health when the grass is not supplying enough energy. We strive to grow as nutrient dense foods as possible for your family. Please contact us if we can help fill your family’s food needs.
